Bed Sensor
Introducing our new Bed Sensor at Lifeline24.
We are always looking to provide the very latest and most advanced accessories available for the Lifeline Vi alarm unit. With this in mind, we are now happy to offer the Bed Sensor.
What is the Bed Sensor?
The Bed Sensor is a pressure pad which monitors the occupancy of a bed. It can detect when the user leaves their bed during the night and whether or not they return in good time. The sensor can also identify when the user has not gone to bed by a specified time. If it detects unexpected activity, it will automatically raise the alarm.
Who is it for?
The Bed Sensor is for people who need extra support to enable independent living. It is best suited for those who have recently been discharged from hospital, elderly people, and/or those with mobility issues.
Available on a yearly or monthly plan for £99.00 per year or £9.99 a month.
Please call 0800 999 0400 to set up your alarm plan and order your Bed Sensor.
All plans include a mandatory £35 set up fee and prices shown are VAT free.
How does the Bed Sensor work?
The standard Bed Sensor is placed underneath a mattress on a bed. A wider model is also available which can sit on top of a mattress. This gives increased sensitivity for users who are small, light, or move a lot in their sleep.
When linked to our Lifeline Vi alarm unit, the Bed Sensor helps to manage the risks associated with independent living. It does this by raising an alarm if the user gets out of bed and does not come back within a certain time. The Bed Sensor also raises an alert if the user doesn’t go to bed by a certain time in the evening, or if they do not get up by a certain time in the morning.
Naturally, these times can be personalised to suit the individual user's routine.
How does it connect to my alarm unit?
The Bed Sensor comes with a universal sensor. The Bed Sensor can be plugged into this universal sensor, which is able to send wireless signals to the Lifeline Vi Alarm unit.
This means the Bed Sensor does not have to be installed in the same room as the Lifeline Vi Alarm unit.
The universal sensor comes with a five-year battery life. This means minimal maintenance and maximum reassurance for the user.

Emergency Contacts
When you purchase a Bed Sensor and Lifeline Vi Alarm unit from Lifeline24, we will ask you to select up to six emergency contacts. In general, we advise choosing close friends, family members, or neighbours as your contacts. The closer they live to your home the better.
This information will be kept on file and sent over to the Care Team so that they can call on these contacts if you need assistance. In the event of an emergency, the 24-Hour Care Team will begin to telephone your emergency contacts to let them know that you require help urgently. In the event that one of your contacts does not respond, the Care Team will move on to the next person on your list.
If any of your emergency contacts change their contact details, please be sure to let us know so that we can update the Care Team.
If you think you could benefit from having a Bed Sensor, please give us a call on 0800 999 0400. Our friendly Customer Service team will be happy to set up your order.
